Abstract
[cat] Expresiones faciales es un proyecto artístico que
representa e investiga los diferentes niveles de
intimidad de tres personas a partir del rostro. Se trata
de establecer una lectura múltiple de la obra: por un
lado, la visión subjetiva del retrato por parte del
artista, y por otro lado está la intención de conducir
las posibles interpretaciones del espectador hacia un
terreno ambiguo. La búsqueda constante del
misterio, de rasgos enfrentados, de expresiones a
medio camino, de emociones que se contradicen,
responde siempre a una dicotomía intencionada. Se
evoca el punto muerto entre la consciencia y la
inconsciencia de los retratados, entre la pose
premeditada y la mueca distraída. Un punto muerto
en el rostro que rompe en cierto modo con el
arquetipo actual del retrato y que pretende dejar al
espectador un leve rastro de privacidad.
[eng] Facial expressions is an art project that portrays and looks into the different levels of intimacy of three people by looking at their faces. The idea is to set up a dual reading of the works. On the one hand, there is the artist's subjective vision of the portrait; on the other hand, there is a will of leading the observer's feasible interpretations to a context of ambiguity. The constant search for mystery – confronted features, halfway-there expressions, contradictory emotions – always arises from this deliberate dichotomy. Thus, it suggests a neutrality between conscious and subconscious mind, the premeditated pose and the idle look. The neutral faces break away somehow from the current archetype of portraying, giving the observer a slight trace of privacity.
